According to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors, many factors affect the lifespan of a water heater, but they typically operate between 10 and 15 years. If your water heater falls within that range, it may be time to start considering buying a new water heater.

Common Water Heater Problems

Leaking Tank

If you find your water heater is leaking, contact Becht / Givens Service Experts at 502-785-8230 as soon as possible. Even a minor leak can escalate fast and lead to expensive harm to your living space.

Not Enough Hot Water Created

If you’re getting zero, or very little, hot water out of your tap, the issue could be the pilot light. If you’re unsure how to investigate the pilot light, give Becht / Givens Service Experts a call and we’ll manage the problem.

Water is Too Hot or Too Cold

There’s a likelihood you have the incorrect size water heater for your house. A quick call to our experts and we can help you calculate your usage and help remedy the issue.

Other Common Water Heater Problems

Odd noises coming from the tank
